Topic:

Health Public policy act H.R. 2430: FDA Reauthorization Act of 2017 This bill tries to amend the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act that was originally passed by Congress in 1938

After reading and considering all the material covered in the various chapters of the text, consider some specific public policy issue/problem (whether addressed in the text or some alternative one that was not covered) that is important to you (i.e., that should be addressed). After conducting research on that topic, and with appropriate reference citations, in a couple of paragraphs describe what change(s) you propose should be made, including why (e.g., reasons undergirding the change(s)), how the change should occur (e.g., constitutional, statutory, regulatory, etc.), why there might be opposition (e.g., from what individuals/groups, on what grounds, etc.), and what specific means/methods you, and/or any other possible supporters, might use in an effort to influence the general public and policy makers to adopt the proposed change(s) (e.g., the media, PACs, etc.).

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument
